Definitions

  • Heat transfer fluids liquid coolant
  • Modern vehicle engines generally require a heat transfer fluid (liquid coolant) to provide long-lasting, year-round protection of their cooling systems.
  • the primary requirements of heat transfer fluids are that they provide efficient heat transfer to control and maintain engine temperature for efficient fuel economy and lubrication, and prevent engine failures due to freeze-up, boiling-over, or over-heating.
  • types of heat transfer fluids which comprise a significant quantity of solvent or solvents.
  • the advantages of creating a heat transfer fluid closer to the point of use become clear. Difficulties arise however in the wide range of formulations for heat transfer fluids and the stability issues associated with additive composition solutions.
  • a heat transfer fluid additive composition comprising greater than or equal to 10 weight percent (wt %) of a carboxylate, based on the total weight of the composition; an azole compound; a base; and water, wherein the base is present in an amount sufficient to obtain a pH of 7 to 10.5 when the heat transfer additive composition is diluted by 50 volume % with water.
  • the heat transfer fluid additive composition can be combined with other components to form a heat transfer fluid.
  • the heat transfer fluid additive composition can be combined with an existing heat transfer fluid to modify the heat transfer fluid.

    • BACKGROUND
  • Modern vehicle engines generally require a heat transfer fluid (liquid coolant) to provide long-lasting, year-round protection of their cooling systems. The primary requirements of heat transfer fluids are that they provide efficient heat transfer to control and maintain engine temperature for efficient fuel economy and lubrication, and prevent engine failures due to freeze-up, boiling-over, or over-heating. There are a variety of types of heat transfer fluids which comprise a significant quantity of solvent or solvents. As the cost of transportation and packaging rises, the advantages of creating a heat transfer fluid closer to the point of use become clear. Difficulties arise however in the wide range of formulations for heat transfer fluids and the stability issues associated with additive composition solutions.

  • The commercial coolant concentrate was an Extended Life OAT type coolant concentrate. “Water cleaned” refers to taking the test sample at the end of test and first water cleaning it and determining the corrosion rate. “Acid cleaned” refers to taking the same test sample and doing an acid cleaning per ASTM D4340. These two set of numbers then can be compared to provide additional information. A comparison of these numbers shows if there is a deposit on the sample surface (water cleaning will not remove it but acid cleaning will).
